Magik,

Mustard Agent Alarm Continues To Ring At APG

ABERDEEN, Md. -- The search continues for a mustard gas leak at Aberdeen Proving Ground.

Officials now say it's a vapor leak, not a liquid one. In order to find the source, they will drape plastic over the container stacks and put monitors underneath.

The process could take some time. The alarm signaling a chemical leak started going off last Wednesday.

Mustard agent is a lethal carcinogen that blisters the eyes, skin, and lungs.
